Seymour Intermediate

Public Grades 4-6
Summary

Seymour Intermediate is a public middle school serving grades 4-6 in Seymour, Tennessee, with 548 students. The school is part of the Sevier County School District, which is ranked 96 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Seymour Intermediate outperforms the Sevier County and Tennessee averages in mathematics, English Language Arts, and science proficiency. However, the school's social studies proficiency is lower than the state average. Interestingly, the nearby Seymour Junior High significantly outperforms Seymour Intermediate in all subject areas, suggesting the transition to junior high may be an area for improvement.

One area of concern is Seymour Intermediate's high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.8% to 28.8% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and nearby schools. The school's higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools suggest it is investing more resources, but this does not seem to be translating to significantly better academic outcomes compared to the surrounding schools.
